A NOVEL custom still prevails among
ladies in some parts which will COM
mend itself to maiden ladies growing
old. 1t Is said that she who puts on a
silk-knit garter the first day Of the
year and wears it continuously will GER
tainly marry during the year. 1t is
said that the mother of a young lady,
being very much pleased with the silk
en- garter worn by a young lady for this
purpose, proposed to knit a ''fellow"
for it; but the young lady declined,
saying she had sufficient confiden 3 in
the bewltching c%irclet, and preferred
the natural coming Of the "fellow."

HIGH INSURANCE.

The arguments in Saturdays HERALD
by Mr. p. c. Jones against excessive
insurance rates we're weighty and
ought to bring property holders to-
gether in an effort to obtain relief from
the burden. Insurance, as we'll as
some other things, is too high in Homo
lulu, and the city will never set along
fairly until it ribs itself Of some Of its
undue extra-government taxation. The
proposition of a local insurance com
pany, put forth by Mr.. Jones, is a sug-
gestion Of what might prove the most
available method Of bringing foreign
insurance companies to realize that the
city was not without power to help
itself against their exactions. There is
not word in Mr.. Jones letter which
can be gainsaid, and yet it did not con
tain everything that can be urged
against the companies "piling II on too
thickly." The fact that the water sup
ply has been very largely increased
since the great fire Of April, there being
now a pressure in the mains sufficient
to throw streams without the engines,
is Of itself sufficient reason for more
favorable terms, instead Of the con
trary, from the insurance companies.
If the latter tested the matter, there is
little doubt they would find more profit
in the long run from moderate than from
excessive rates Many small concerns
that cannot face the ruling premiums
would insure if reduction was made,
and the larger concerns would take ouI
heavier policies than they DO. There
are many establishments now carrying
only partial insurance on their build
ings or effects, perhaps what is deemed
barely enough to save the owners from
ruin in case Of total loss, which would
become fully insured il the rates were
made anything like what they are else
where. The press and the public
should labor hand in hand in thi:
matter, for obtaining the necessary
relief from the very onerous insurance
taxation.
